Help Yourself To Recover From Heart Disease, Diabetes and / or Cancer

There are so many things to know about how to get rid of disease.

Let's begin in God's word:. “If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of these diseases on you, which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the Lord who heals you.” Exodus 15:26

Let's begin by going to Google.com and put in ALKALINE FOODS in their search box. There you will find foods that are listed in the category of alkaline. Diseases, even the common cold, can not stay in an alkaline environment. When you continuously eat alkaline foods, your body will stay healthy. If you already have cancer or any other disease that has been caused by acid-type foods, you can reverse the disease by eating nothing but alkaline-type foods.

Diet is not the only thing that will change your body. In order to create a healthy human baby, a mother does more than just eating food to produce that baby. She also exercises, takes vitamins, drinks filtered water, sleeps enough and other healthy actions.

It may have taken months or years to produce your disease. To reverse it, you'll need to do certain things like eating and drinking right, not smoking, not drinking alcoholic beverages, exercising if you haven't been, laughing, praying, fasting and other things. We really aren't sure what you will have to do to cure yourself, but we have a good idea.

You are now in charge of your own body. You have always been since you were a kid, but maybe you never really thought of it that way before. You are going to change your life for the better, beginning now. If you have fear - repent for it. Ask the Lord to change your fear into courage. We all love courage and we all hate being fearful, so change your mind now. One of the first things you will need to do is to change your thinking, especially if you are fearful of what this is doing to limit you or to even kill you.

One of the most important things for all of us to do is not to hold onto any anger towards anyone. If you are angry at anyone, forgive them now. Not just in your words, but seriously from your heart. “I forgive ___________.” Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven." Matthew 21

Remember, often times that person you need to forgive is yourself. Ask the Lord to forgive you – He will. It says so in the Bible. "For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You.” Psalm 86:5

No matter what kind of cancer you have, prayer and fasting will help change your spirit, mind, emotions and your body.

If you aren't sure how to pray, just begin with your simple feelings and ask God to help you through the day. Cancer can usually bring on waves of fear and in order to break those waves, praying or singing to God will change the fear to a different level of emotion, such as courage or joy. Don't feel self-conscious when you pray, laugh or even cry in front of God. He loves you and knows what you are going through.

Turn on worship music or music you enjoy. If you are up to it, dance to the rhythm and laugh or sing along. “A merry heart does good like a medicine.” Proverbs 17:22

Have you heard of Norman Cousins, who wrote “An Anatomy of an Illness" He found himself with a debilitating disease and ended up in the hospital. While there, he had a revelation about Proverbs 17:22 verse and decided to test it. He noticed that the depressing routine of hospital life tended to produce side effects that aggravated his condition. He moved out of the hospital and into a nearby hotel and for weeks he did nothing but lie in bed, still weak from his disease and laughed at “I love Lucy,” “The Three Stooges,” “Red Skelton Show,” “The Marx Brother” and many more. He laughed all day long and within a few weeks, the doctors noticed a change in his body. He ate better than when in the hospital and medicated himself with high doses of Vitamin C. He is convinced that the slow improvement in his condition is owing to his individualized methods of therapy and his having taken charge of his own situation.

Now for something most people do not know:

Even though lemons are acidic, they help to bring the body back to the alkaline level. Why should you take the extra step to add warm lemon water first thing in the morning? The health benefits of drinking warm lemon water first thing in the morning are many. They range from clearer skin to possibly helping to prevent cancer. Who would have thought that something as simple as squeezing lemon into warm water could do so much good! Start with a full glass (at least 8 ounces) of warm, filtered or artesian alkaline water and squeeze the juice of a lemon into it. Use organic lemons to do your body the most good.

Here are just 12 reasons for drinking lemon water:

Boosts Your Immune System - Helps your system gain a more alkaline state, which is optimal to fighting infection.
Clears the Skin - Lemons add Vitamin C and antioxidants to your system, which keeps our bodies fight cancer and are wonderful for your complexion.

Aids in Weight Loss - Pectin, found in lemons helps curb hunger
Great Source of Potassium - Excellent for heart health, the brain and nervous system problems and breathing problems, such as asthma.
Balance pH: While lemons may seem quite acidic, they are a good source that can help balance your body’s pH.
Energizes and Enhances Your Mood - Lemon juice gives your body an energy boost and provides help with anxiety and depression.
Anti-Cancer property studies say the anti-cancer activity of citrus liminoids compounds that help protect your cells from damage. can lead to formation of cancer cells .

Brings Down a Fever - Forget the days of starving a fever! When your temperature goes up, drinking a lemon juice mixture can help bring your fever down faster.
Cleanses Your System and Acts as a Diuretic - The enzymes found in lemons act as a stimulant to your liver to help detox your body.
As stated above, lemon juice is like an antiseptic acid, which cleanses your body's system, flushing out all unwanted toxins. It increases urination to flush all toxins and helps in normal bowel movement. Lemon water also helps in maximizing the production of enzymes that stimulate liver detoxification function.

There may be arguments in the health community about exactly how much water to drink each day, but we do know it's important to stay hydrated. For those who find water boring, lemon has long been suggested as a tasty addition to help compel them to drink more.

Constipation Help
If you're having trouble pooping, warm water and lemon might be just the thing to help you go. Taking in plenty of water is helpful for constipation in general, and the citrus can give some help to get things moving inside.

Stop UTIs (Urinary Tract Infection)
If you're suffering from a UTI or want a way to prevent them, lemon water can help. Lemons helps change the pH in your blood and the urinary tract, so harmful bacteria can't stick around.

Bad Breath
Of course, there's no way to avoid morning breath, but drinking lemon water can combat the bacteria in the mouth, according to Conscious Connection magazine, and therefore, lessen the potential for bad breath. Be careful, though — lemons can also erode the enamel on your teeth, so it's a good idea to rinse with plain water after you drink a glass of lemon water.

Weight Loss
There are a variety of theories as to why lemon water might cause weight loss (including feeling more full from the pectin contained within). We do think that drinking lemon water will have fewer calories than drinking anything else except for water, thus helping to keep the calories down.

Freshen Your Skin
Thanks to all the vitamin C within lemons, your skin reaps the benefits of you drinking the fruit as well. Vitamin C assists in the production of collagen, so having more Vitamin C in your diet can prevent wrinkles from forming. And of course, drinking lots of water is great for skin in general.

Pump Up The Immune System
There's a reason you're always drawn to oranges when you're sick - once again, the power of vitamin C at play. Consuming the vitamin daily (via lemon water) can help keep you healthy and stave off infection.

Recover From A Workout
Sports drinks have long been seen as the best way to 'rehydrate' after a workout, but they're often unnecessary for the kind of exercise most people do regularly. Lemon water, meanwhile, provides the hydration needed when working out.

Helps With Aches And Pains
Lemon water can help reduce uric acid in your joints, which is one of the main causes of inflammation, especially as related to arthritis, thus helping the joints to feel better.

Reduces Phlegm
It's a sad fact of our cold weather existence - phlegm happens, especially in the morning, but lemon juice can help. Adding a little honey helps rid your body of the mucous.

Strengthens The Brain
Lemon may be known best for its vitamin C, but it also contains potassium, which helps with brain and nerve function. So for a quick natural way to feel more alert, lemon water is a good bet.

Cleanses The Liver: the liver can make more enzymes out of lemon juice than any other food. While we aren't advocating for an intensive cleanse (we know those are unnecessary), this can help give your organ a boost.

Some Super Veggies to eat to help recover from Cancer and other diseases:
Organic: beets, tomatoes, squash, kale, broccoli, avocado, carrots, Reishi and Shiltaki mushrooms, garlic, ginseng tea, (red, yellow, orange and green veggies). If you have a juicing machine, juice organic carrots, broccoli, kale and an orange for a veggie-fruit smoothie. Vitamins A, C and E are the main three vitamins that will help your body recover faster.

Kale: One of the most popular American greens, like other cruciferous vegetables, offers antioxidants, anti-inflammatory nutrients and anti-cancer features. Together these properties prevent oxidative stress and chronic inflammation in the body thus yielding cancer preventive benefits. In addition to cancer prevention, kale is full of fiber and very low in calories. Its amazing vitamin content provides generous amounts of vitamins K, A, and C and good supplies of some B vitamins and vitamin E.

Broccoli : This nutritional powerhouse contains many disease fighters, including beta-carotene, vitamin C and the B vitamin folate. It also has kaempferol, another flavanoid linked to decreased inflammation. Toss steamed broccoli with whole-wheat pasta and pine nuts For even more kaempferol, pick up some kale, green beans, leeks and tea.

Garlic: The benefits of garlic for reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease are well known. These benefits also extend to conditions like heart attack, coronary artery disease, hypertension and atherosclerosis. Since all these conditions are affected by some sort of constriction of blood vessels, garlic consumption can reverse these effects by improving the flexibility of blood vessels.

Avocado: The avocado is one of the healthiest foods around. With an abundance of monounsaturated fats, shown to reverse insulin resistance and regulate blood sugar levels. They include carotenoids, which help lower inflammation, boost immunity and promote healthy growth and development. They also contain more soluble fiber than most other foods and have a high protein to low sugar content among fruits. When the total nutrient profile of avocadoes is put into perspective, the benefits include improved heart health, healthy skin, eyes and hair and better digestive and cognitive health.

Bell Pepper: are low in calories but contain plenty of vitamin C and A. The vitamin C content assists in absorption of iron and vitamin B6 and folate help prevent anemia. As such, bell peppers are often recommended for individuals who may be iron deficient. Vitamin A, on the other hand, helps support healthy eyesight, especially night vision. Bell peppers also contain several phyto-chemicals and carotanoids, but their most renowned nutrient is perhaps capsaicin. The capsaicin in peppers has multiple health benefits and helps manage cholesterol levels, controls diabetes and brings relief from pain, while easing inflammation. Being a food rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory nutrients, it is no wonder that peppers also provide anti-cancer benefits.

Brussel Sprouts: For Diabetes, the fiber in Brussel sprouts can help balance sugar spikes, and manage diabetes better. They are also surprisingly high in protein for a green vegetable.are an important source of vitamins C and A in the form of beta carotene and excellent supplies of vitamin K. They can provide cardiovascular support by lowering cholesterol levels, and promote digestive support because of their fiber content.

Beets: help to lower blood pressure in hypertensive individuals. Dilated blood vessels can also increase blood flow to the brain promoting better brain function. They are also known to possess detoxifying potential by preventing and reducing the accumulation of fats in the liver. Their vast nutritional profile includes many vitamins, minerals, and organic compounds with very few calories and no cholesterol.

Super Fruits to eat:
Organic: strawberries, cherries, raspberries, apples, oranges, lemons (red, orange and yellow fruits). Organic lemons help to bring the body back to alkaline and cancer cells hate it. Add some almond or coconut milk and the juice of several organic fruits for a refreshing fruit shake for a mid-morning or mid-afternoon snack.

Pomegranates: perhaps most well known for their anti-carcinogenic effects. The fruit has been shown to exert antitumor effects on various types of cancers including breast cancer and prostate cancer. Other benefits include the ability to lower blood pressure, reduce arthritis and joint pain and improve memory and heart health.

Pineapple: is a nutrient dense tropical fruit that despite its nutritional value is considerably low in calories. It has long been used as a natural remedy to treat various issues ranging from indigestion and sore throats to common cold and sinus inflammation. Considered by many as an ideal immunity booster given its high vitamin C content. Vitamin C also helps synthesize collagen, which maintains healthy blood vessels and organs. Being a high fiber food, pineapple can help lower blood glucose levels type 2 diabetes and aid digestive health. Pineapple is also known to support heart health, because of its fiber, potassium and vitamin C content.

Cranberries : Studies suggest that ½ cup day of cranberries may inhibit growth and proliferation of breast, colon, lung and prostate tumors. Researchers suspect that one protective mechanism is the anti-inflammatory action of this antioxidant-packed red berry. Toss dried cranberries into a green salad or your morning bowl of oatmeal.

Cherries : An earlier study suggests that cherry consumption relieves arthritis symptoms. Laboratory studies show the anti-inflammatory properties of anthocyanins – compounds responsible for the cherry’s rich red color – but researchers suspect there are many more anti-inflammatory chemicals in this juicy red fruit. Enjoy a dessert or snack of fresh cherries in season and dried all year long.

Dark purple or red Grapes: The antioxidant reseratrol found in the skin of grapes ( red wine) also fights inflamma-tion and cancer. Keep purple or red grapes washed in the refrigerator. (Fruit is healthier than juice because it has more fiber and less sugar.) sip juices slowly or add purified water 50/50.

Apples: If an apple a day really does keep the doctor away, it might be because of its high concentration of quercetin, a flavanoid also present in onions and green tea. Researchers found a link between apples, flavanoids and quercetin and decreased inflammation. Toss diced apples into chicken salad or warm your family with a baked apple and a pinch of cinnamon.

Protein meats: 3 ounces of organic chicken or turkey, and ocean salmon to be eaten at least twice a week.

Eggs: coddled, over easy, sunny side up are the three best ways to eat eggs. Omega-3 fats yield anti-inflammatory compounds; omega-6 fats give us inflammation.

Limit highly processed foods (always a good idea). Dress your salad and sauté your meats and veggies in omega-3 rich canola or olive oil. Eat other plant sources of omega-3 fats, including walnuts and ground flax-seed, ground or chopped avocado inner seed.

Limit your beef intake. Choose instead: wild salmon, tuna, trout, herring, sardines and mackerel for most potent, anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids.

Nuts: Nuts have long been linked with less coronary heart disease than other high-calorie foods.

2005 study in American Journal of Epidemiology of more than 6,000 people found those, who ate the most nuts and seeds had the lowest levels of inflammatory markers in their blood. High content of amino acid arginine may be responsible for inflammation-soothing effect of nuts. Snack on 1oz. serving (about one-fourth cup) walnuts, pistachios or almonds to keep your calories in check.

Cocoa: Cocoa can reduce the risk of heart disease. When researchers in Spain gave 42 men and women skim milk mixed with cocoa powder twice daily for four weeks, participants had lower levels of inflammatory markers in their blood compared with four- week period in which they drank plain skim milk. A 2006 study from University of California, Davis showed that drinking cocoa improved blood flow and decreased lipid levels in 32 postmenopausal women. Beneficial ingredient is flavanols, which reduce inflammation and blood clotting. Cocoa has a rich concentration of them.

Enjoy a cup or two of steamy hot cocoa made with real cocoa and skim or low-fat non-GMO milk to hold down the calories and saturated fats. And don’t think a chocolate bar carries the same health boost; the candy is high in saturated fat and cancer cells thrive on the sugar in the candy.

A Daily Anti-Inflammation Eating Plan - Can’t figure out to get all these anti-inflammatory foods into your meals? Try the menu below:

Breakfast: Oatmeal sprinkled with dried cranberries and cinnamon

Snack: Grapes, cherries, an apple, an orange,

Lunch: Green salad loaded with fresh veggies, including broccoli, onions, a sprinkling of walnuts or almonds and fresh-cracked pepper and an olive or canola oil dressing. Top your salad with grilled organic chicken
Whole-grain bread or crackers
Unsweetened tea

Snack: Cherries, walnuts

Dinner: Sliced fresh tomato drizzled with olive oil
Grilled salmon with rosemary
Sauteed spinach with leeks and ginger
Beets
Brown rice
Unsweetened tea

Dessert:
Apple, sliced & sprinkled with cinnamon, cooked in microwave or baked in oven.

Drinks: Purified water, organic green tea, dark organic grape juice, organic fruit or veggie juices, organic cocoa, almond or coconut milk. Fruit juices especially should be drunk slowly, so the pancreas can catch up to the sugar being put into the body. Diet pops (heavy in cancer causing and addictive chemicals) should absolutely be avoided.

For strength: a teaspoon of raw Buckwheat honey. Can be taken one teaspoon every two hours up to 3 teaspoons per day. If you are diabetic, limit your intake to one teaspoon per day.

For settling stomach: chew on some organic papaya

Refrain from eating white flour (white breads, cookies, crackers, cakes, etc.). Rye or multi-grain flours are better. Brown rice and multi-grain pasta are better than white.

Refrain from white sugar used in (ketsup, pop, cakes, pies, cookies, tea, coffee, etc.). Cancer feeds on undigested red meats and white sugar and white flour.

Using Flax-seed is a wonderful way to keep the body regular. It can be used as ground seed or eaten on salads just as it usually is found. When it is used as flax-seed oil, along with cottage cheese, cancer cells scream with the knowledge that this combination is working to get rid of tumors and overall disease of cancer.

The recipe is so easy – anyone can use it. Just take ½ cup of cottage cheese and put 2 tablespoons of flax-seed oil on top. Let that sit for about 5 minutes; after which you will want to mix thoroughly with a whip, so that the oil and the cottage cheese become one. This will be almost like yogurt, but because of the taste you are not used to, you probably will want to add fruit, like peaches, strawberries, etc. and mix them in, so the flavor will be tasteful. Eat at least twice a day in order to stay regular. This will give you some fiber for the day. Make sure you also add other fiber to your diet at each meal you eat.

For our kidneys: corn silk taken as a tea is a fantastic way of getting rid of inflammation from the kidneys or bladder. It is a very simple solution and by putting fresh or dried corn silk into a cup and adding steaming hot filtered water to it and then letting it steep for a few minutes until the water is a yellowy color, makes a simple answer to a very painful problem. Drink several cups of this per day and watch how fast the recovery comes.

Vitamins that will fight cancer are A,C and E. You will want to ask your doctor how much of each, as you are going to need more than usual to fight the cancer.

Don't smoke or drink alcohol. Do not eat any fried foods either.

One of the best things we can all do for our bodies is to take a walk daily. It seems like such a simple thing to say, but in reality, most of us are sitting on the couch, watching tv or sleeping or munching on something none of us should be eating or drinking.

Just get up now and go get your jacket on and take a 20 minute walk for starters. You need the oxygen in your blood to help your body to heal and fight those “bugs” that are attacking your lungs, heart, legs, arms and even your head. Take a 20 minute walk each day for a week and increase it to 30 minutes and then an hour. Believe me, you will start feeling yourself again. Oxygen makes us feel happy and well.

What has been included here is not everything there is to know how to beat Cancer, Heart disease or other diseases, but it is a start. If you use some of the basics before you are sick, it will also help your body fight off disease, when it comes knocking at your door.
